I have noticed that my XcodeIntermediateFiles folder seems to grow larger and larger as I build my project over time.

I am currently using Xcode 3.1.3.

Is this expected?

A bit ago, it was ~22gb. I did a full clean and rebuilt everything and it is now just ~4gb.

Of course, I don't think I should have to do a full clean periodically, but I am not sure how to manage this size of this folder better.

Any suggestions?


I know that Xcode has some defaults to control the size of the PCH cache on disk (check out "Xcode user defaults" in the Xcode documentation window). However, I don't think there is any automated cleanup of the intermediates folder.


I do find it odd that rebuilding your same project again causes OBJROOT to grow in size. Are you doing any unusual with the location of your intermediates folder (I could see something like this happening if you ended up putting intermediate objects in a new location with each build)?
